Verizon’s Kit Kat Update for the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is Live

The update is build VRUFND7 and jumps the phone up to Android 4.4.2. It includes Samsung KNOX 2.0, restyled notification bar, the option to choose a default SMS app, emoji, a new keyboard, and all sorts of bug fixes. You can see the full details here.

Cheers Ariel and Jordan!

Fried my phone and is apparently happening to 1 in 8 phones (ranging from note 2, 3 and s4/s5). Just a heads up ^_^

YES!!!!! Luv it especially since I just purchased a Sony Smartband (only works with 4.4). Subtle changes but I dig it. It’s gonna be tough to convince me to upgrade from the Note 2…. wait now I see why they delay the updates…. interesting.

Anyone know if this update will break FoxFi?

it appears to be working for me, there is one extra step now that i didn’t have to do before but other than that its fine

Do you guys think I should switch from JediX 19 running 4.1.2? It seems it has been getting glitch lately.

i nominate the image above for official verizon note 2 picture for note 2-related stories. nice.

Maybe this means the Verizon S3 will get some love soon too.

yeah i need my phone to give me an alert when droid life posts “Verizon” “KitKat” and “S3″ combo’ed in the title.

Search it enough times and Google Now will tell you if you enable browser alerts.

Within a month. GS3 got 4.3 first before the Note 2, now it is in reverse, both were guaranteed it by Samsung.

I’ll stick to my 4.4.3 CM11…you can keep your touchwiz

blahblahblah

Then why even comment? Go be a troll somewhere else.

Note 4’s going to come in a flat version and a curved version. Beastly specs too

GN2 owners downloading their last update…R.I.P old friend!

Perhaps not. The people at Sammobile said there is a new build available for the international version. Most likely, it’s a bug fix.

Downloading as we speak. Wooo hooo
